7132LA17PDG

Memory IC Overview

The Renesas Electronics Corporation 7132LA17PDG is a 16Kbit (2K x 8) dual-port asynchronous static random-access memory (SRAM). It operates within a supply voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V and features a maximum access time of 17ns. The component is housed in a 48-pin Plastic Dual In-line Package (PDIP) designed for through-hole mounting. It supports parallel interface communication and functions reliably across an operating temperature range of 0°C to +70°C.

Memory IC Feature Summary

• Dual-port architecture enabling independent simultaneous access by two processors
• Asynchronous operation without clock synchronization requirements
• CMOS technology ensuring low power consumption during standby and active states

Memory IC Applications

• High-speed data buffering between microprocessors and peripherals
• Cache memory implementation in embedded control systems
• Data storage in industrial automation controllers

Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix PDG confirms the 48-PDIP through-hole package variant. Confirm RoHS compliance status as historical batches may vary. Check for End-of-Life notices or obsolescence declarations from Renesas, as this component series has faced discontinuation events. Ensure moisture sensitivity handling protocols are followed if the device has been exposed to ambient conditions.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this part when a dual-port SRAM with 17ns speed is required for through-hole PCB designs. Compare against the 7132LA20J for slower access times or the 7132LA10 for faster performance. Consider the PDIP form factor constraints versus surface-mount alternatives like the PLCC-52 or TQFP packages available in the same memory capacity family.

Memory IC Part Context

This component belongs to the IDT/Renesas 7132LA series of dual-port SRAMs. These devices were originally developed by Integrated Device Technology before acquisition by Renesas. The series provides non-volatile-like reliability with volatile speed, widely used in legacy telecommunications and computing hardware requiring high-bandwidth shared memory access.

Memory IC Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible replacements include the IDT7132LA17PDG. Other speeds in the same package include the 7132LA20J and 7132LA35PDG. Verify electrical compatibility regarding access times and power specifications before substituting.
